Wabi, rebranding as a personal AI agent, raised $55 million at a $1.25 billion valuation to develop technology that lets users create AI‑powered mini‑applications.

AI startup Wabi announced a $55 million Series B round that values the company at $1.25 billion, funding its pivot to a personal‑agent platform that enables users to build AI‑powered mini‑apps.

Funding round details

The round was led by Sequoia Capital with participation from existing investors including Accel and Benchmark. The capital will be used to expand the engineering team, accelerate product development, and scale go‑to‑market efforts.

What the personal‑agent platform offers

Wabi’s platform lets developers and non‑technical users create “mini‑apps” that combine natural‑language understanding, tool integration, and context‑aware responses. These agents can automate tasks such as scheduling, data retrieval, and personalized recommendations, all within a single conversational interface.

  • Drag‑and‑drop workflow builder for rapid prototyping
  • Pre‑trained AI models that can be fine‑tuned on proprietary data
  • Marketplace for sharing and monetizing custom mini‑apps

Market positioning and competition

The personal‑agent space is heating up, with players like OpenAI and Anthropic offering broader AI assistants. Wabi differentiates itself by focusing on modular mini‑apps that can be embedded in existing products, giving enterprises a faster path to AI‑enhanced functionality.

Analysts note that the ability to quickly spin up specialized agents could lower the barrier for smaller companies to adopt AI, potentially expanding the market beyond the current enterprise‑centric focus.
